You can use my BWToolkit plugin for Interface Builder to add a bottom bar. The advantage to using the plugin rather than doing it programmatically (as Andre suggested) is that you'll be able to see the bottom bar in IB which makes it easy to position UI elements on or above it.

I am working on an app, and need to create a "bottom bar" for it.

I could not find any control or info on how to do this, but I noticed
that if I set the Appearance : Texture attribute to true in Interface
Builder (for the window), I seemed to get a bottom bar.

You can see a screenshot here:

My question is:

Is this the correct way to create the bottom bar?

Is there any way to style the window so it look more like itunes
(itunes has a lighter grey).

Thanks for any input...
